I totally agree - our concern should begin and end with whether our interests are addressed or not. This is not the time to argue and nitpick on what is good for the whole world in the long term - remember, there is no "long term" for us without a GC. Lets be realistic - its a done deal that EB reform if all it comes up, will come with either a generous H1-B increase or illegal alien amnesty or both of them. Its not our job to worry about excessive immigration - the anti-immigrants and their friendly congressmen are always there to raise a hue and cry and dilute any and all pro-immigrant proposals. With them at work, if we ask for a yard we will get a foot, if we ask for a foot we will end up with not even an inch.
Well, it is not a perfect world. It is not a perfect system. When CIR comes up every group will push for their interests. If u send a mail to any Senator, all u get is a standard reply about H1-B. It will be impossible to educate every ligislator. We have to do the best we can to voice our concerns and go with the tide. We cannot nitpick the sections of the CIR and tell the legislators vote only for these. We just make sure that our issues are addressed in whatever bill comes up.

I work for company A which sent me to client C through company B(Prefered vendor). After working with the same client for 1.5 yrs, transfered my h1b to company B(PF) due to issues with the pay with company A. Company A has deducted huge sum of money($4000) from my last months pay towards PERM filing(Still under process). Upon demanding them to reimburse my money saying that its against law, they r threatening me saying that based on non-compete agreement they will take legal action against me.
I am not actually aware of the clauses in the agreement. company B(PF) told me that it does not have any clauses in its agreement with company A prohibiting them from taking me.Though i requested company A to provide me a copy of non-compete, they said i signed with them, they haven�t. The company is located in NJ and not sure how non-competes work under NJ state law.
I am really frustated upon this blackmail and going thru lot of pressure. The amount is too big too leave and cannot afford to hire a lawyer in case they file suit based on non-compete. even if i had signed a non compete agreement how does it stand as it is conflicting the agreement which company a signed with PF sayign tht upon my termination of the emplyment with them, Pf can take me without any gap period... what can i do to get my money. they also refused to provide me with experience letter which i need for my future GC filing.
Plz give me ur valuable inputs
Restrictive employment contracts are non-enforcable, atleast in California. Here's a classic case of a H1B employee who successfully sued his employer on a restrictive employment contract and the employer was ordered to pay $215,050.61 in damages.
http://www.news.com/Body-shop-must-pay-fees-in-H-1B-lawsuit/2100-1017_3-256477.html
Also note that all PERM related expenses should be borne only by the employer. Refer the following link and search for "Certain Payments are Employer's Expenses under PERM" and "Employer Must Pay even with Dual Representation "

Predictions of the bill
I think some result will come in the bill sooner or later. if not this year may be next year bill will be passed. Probably most of the immigration provisions will be Amended to get a some releif for everyone. H1 cap may be increased to 115k. No of greencards will not be 650k. may be Double the current number than 650k. There will be strong opposition for big increase of immigration. The reason is lot of americans lost job in IT because of outsourcing and h1s. The impact might be mild as most of them landed in another job as ecomomy slowly improved. If no possiblity of passing the bill it will be killed in 2 or 3 months. On the other hand If delayed for next year the bill will be passed in some form. Bush will try to give relief to illegals before he leaves office.

Dear Readers, Hillary Clinton is a secretary of State. It is historic fact that Clintons have been long supporters of India. She, as a secretary of state has considerable clout in the present administration. I encourage everyone to write to her. Maybe she can get something for us.

I think we should be careful about what we (Employment based immigrats, esp. those who are stuck in backlogs) support. I definitely do not support any reform that does not give us priority or does not eliminate employment based immigration backlogs.
I also think green card lottery, chain immigration, and refugee green cards should be eliminated and those visa numbers should be used for employment based immigrants because all these people can immigrate just like us through employment. We contribute more to the American society and should be given priority. I guess when we become American someday, we would like immigrants who contribute to our community too. Isn't that right? :)
that's just wishful thinking, there are lots and lots of good enterpreneuers who came through family based system, the whole system should be expanded, but not at the cost of family based green card system. even computer graduates ar being produced in bulk in india, evey third person in india is having some kind of bachelor's whether BSc or B.E, U.S won't simply absorb them just because they happen be skilled, however given that there are lots of people who have worked here for so many years, our quota should be expanded.
thanks

:) my point was, regulations and interpretations are meant for the exact situation. Anyway I am also done in this topic. I have no personal interest on either EB-quota or FB-quota (why am i even here... nhaa?).
Thanks for a healthy discussion though.
we are talking about inclusion logic here. Not the exclusion logic.

My attorney said ideally they have to accept I-485 till 30 June, but during last 20 years of his experience, 3 times it happened that the date was retrogated in middle of the month. So June visa dates can go back. Act fast and apply I-485 if not done yet !!!

I wish they go after the fake companies that acts as GC boutique and also those who "bought" GC from them. (I mean not really bought, but who got GC from a company who originally never intended to work for them or never did). And of course use those numbers for LEGITIMATE cases (I hate to see those numbers go waste).
That is always the problem; what people define as legitimate?
A lot of people think their cases are legitimate and others aren't

Can we also try to involve some professional organisations like, TIE here and NASSCOM there. Indian government should also atleast give feelers to US govt for this unjust move, even if they cannot abolish per country quota, they can atleast make it depending on few parameters:
Like size of country, how many h1's are granted each year, pending GC applications.
What is your say on this.

Please some one has take a lead. I know a very good attorney i.e. Visanow.com. We should try to contact them and find out what are possibility we have to remove the country cap.
some of EB3 folks formed a group to fight for this but EB2 did not participate because they were thinking that they will get their GC sooner or later.
This is a time to fight together.

Mehul,
Sad to hear your situation. Greg Siskind has discussed some of the legal options on his blog http://blogs.ilw.com/gregsiskind/
As others have suggested, if possible your spouse should pursue her own path to GC through H1B employer as a realistic option. IV members would help in the job search.
Wish you and your family all the best.

Hi guys,
My first H1B (2003) had LUD on 14th of July...and today there is a LUD on I-140. My I-140 approved in March 2007..PD is March 2005...Is it good indication that they are doing something with my I-485 case? My application reached NSC on july 2nd (not sure about time as my lawyer sent those papers). My I-140 is from TSC.
Mine is pretty much the same situation and see a LUD of 08/05/2007 on my I-140 today. Hopefully I will see checks cashed in the next couple of days. Fingers crossed. :confused:
